4th Sunday of Easter
GOOD SHEPHERD SUNDAY
“For He hears the lamb’s innocent call,
And He hears the ewe’s tender reply.
He is watchful while they are in peace.
For they know when their Shepherd is nigh.”
William Blake
"We adore You, Jesus,
eternal Shepherd of the human race.
You are present in the Eucharist
to dwell continually
in the midst of Your people.
You nourish us,
You guard us,
You guide us to the heavenly fold."
Bl James Alberione

PRAYER for VOCATIONS
______________
Pope Leo XIV message for World Day of
Prayer for Vocations
https://www.vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/en/messages/vocations/documents/20260316-messaggio-vocazioni.html
(Excerpt below...)
Dear brothers and sisters, dear young people, I encourage you
to cultivate your personal relationship with God through daily prayer
and meditation on the Word. Pause, listen and entrust yourselves.
In this way, the gift of your vocation will mature, bringing
you happiness and yielding abundant fruit for the Church and
the world. May the Virgin Mary, model of the interior acceptance
of divine gifts and expert in prayerful listening, always accompany
you on this journey! - Pope Leo XIV
________________
Pray TODAY - and EVERYDAY - for vocations -
Father, hear the prayers of Your people
and bring to maturity the seeds You have
sown in the field of Your Church.

St Joseph, pray for us!
